               If we use the “real return” for stocks, bonds, and cash in the
            previous chart, here is how long it would take to double your

            money in your investment portfolio after taxes and inflation,
            which would translate into more income in retirement:


             Double Time



                     Treasury Bills       Government Bonds          Stocks
                   Never               120 Years               14 Years


             These approximate  gures are based on the “rule of 72.”
